Onitama Board Game

thingiverse

Onitama is a two-player, perfect information abstract game with a random starting set-up. A 5x5 board comes into play, where both players start with five pawns on their side, and the main pawn resides in the middle. Each player has two open cards, which display possible moves for any of his pieces, while a fifth card remains unused by either player. During a turn, a player chooses one of his cards, then moves one of his pieces according to the chosen card before replacing that card with the fifth card. The other player selects one of their cards, makes the corresponding move, and exchanges it for the card used by the first player. Moving onto an opponent's pawn removes that pawn from the game. Taking the opponent's main pawn or moving your main pawn into the opponent's main pawn starting space wins you the game. To give this a Harry Potter twist, I've created a themed version of Onitama. Remixed versions of Tanya Wiesner's "Harry Potter and Dumbledore" have been turned into player pawns. Check out my revised pieces at https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3210239
